"Born on the Fourth of July" mainly shows the difficult life and painful mood of an American soldier who killed his comrade by accident in the Vietnam War and became disabled. It reflects the mentality of a generation of American youth from one side. The film describes not only a story about a person, but a generation of American reflections on war and the impact of war on them. The concept of the film is based on an ordinary person born on the Independence Day of the United States, Ron Kowick, as the main character, and basically uses the three parades he participated in as the structural line throughout the film. Although the scene of the Vietnam battlefield in the film only takes 17 minutes, the whole film is shrouded in the shadow of war from beginning to end, full of sad atmosphere, and thought-provoking   .

    From the perspective of play and director, it is perfect, I like the steps that cannot be reached by wheelchair, and the final comparison ✌️. Watching this drama feels like crying every moment, sad history, and history repeats itself. Destroyed beliefs can forgive you in the end, and deceitful beliefs are downright malicious lies.

Born on the Fourth of July quotes

  • Steve Boyer: You could start out as a cashier... and then work your way up to becoming a manager of one of these places - just like your dad.

    Ron Kovic: I get $1700 a month from the government. I think I'm just going to lay low, and look around...

    Steve Boyer: [dismissively] That's charity money, Ronnie; this isn't.

    Ron Kovic: Charity?

    Steve Boyer: All I'm saying is that you got to - you got to put the war behind you, you know; you got to forget about this chair you're in!

    Ron Kovic: [leans forward] Sometimes, Stevie, I think people, they know you're back from Vietnam, and their face - changes: the eyes, the voice, the way they look at you, you know.

    Steve Boyer: I know what you mean, Ronnie, but people here - they don't give a shit about the war! Yeah! To them it's just a million miles away. It's all bullshit, anyway. I mean, the government sold us a bill of goods and we bought it, and got the shit kicked out of us, and for what, huh?

    Ron Kovic: What do you mean, "we," Stevie? You were in college, man.

    Steve Boyer: [shrugs shoulders] You bought that Communist bullshit, Ronnie. Yeah, they were going to take over the world, you remember that? Fenelli, you, Walsh - the whole town was devastated.

    [pause]

    Steve Boyer: For what? For lies, for bullshit lies?

  • Ron Kovic: [to Charlie] I had a mother; I had a father, things - things that made sense. Do you remember things that made sense? Things you could count on? Before we all got so lost? What are we gonna do, Charlie? What am I gonna do?
